Path To Well-Being In Law Podcast: Episode 6 - Tim Carroll & Margaret Ogden

<p>Chris Newbold:                Hello and welcome to episode six of the <a href='https://lawyerwellbeing.net/podcast/'>National Task Force on Lawyer Well-Being Podcast Series, “The Path to Well-Being in Law.”</a> I'm your cohost <a href='https://www.alpsinsurance.com/about/officers-board/chris-newbold'>Chris Newbold</a> of ALPS Malpractice Insurance. And our goal here is simple, to introduce you to cool people doing awesome work in the space of lawyer well-being, and in the process build and nurture a national network of well-being advocates intent on creating a culture shift within the legal profession.</p> <p>                                         I'm joined today by my friend and fellow co-chair of the National Task Force <a href='https://www.prkrill.com/our-team'>Bree Buchanan</a>.

In other words, serving as laboratories of democracy or laboratories of new ideas. And in any movement, you need a few leaders, a few examples to jump out in front. And that's exactly what we've seen out of our friends in the Commonwealth of Virginia.</p> <p>                                           Across the country we've seen a swelling of task forces, work groups, round tables coming out of state bars and state supreme courts, and there are some lessons to be learned from the Virginia experience and their roadmap. And there are no two better guests than our duo today, <a href='http://www.vacourts.gov/courtadmin/aoc/ed/programs/vlwi/home.html'>Margaret Ogden who's the wellness coordinator for the Virgi
